Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Root CauseVal'sharah · Level 10-45

    The massive roots of Shaladrassil are spreading a horrible corruption throughout the forest. If we are to save Val'sharah, we will need to find a way to stop the encroachment of the world tree. If you bring me enough corrupted root samples, I may be able to discover their secrets.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Die is CastVal'sharah · Level 10-45

    Thanks to your efforts the temple is safe, for now. But the Tears of Elune are stolen and Shaladrassil, the world tree that once protected this land, is now an instrument in the hands of our enemy. The Emerald Dream itself is being overrun by Nightmare.
